Metatrader 5 Expert Advisor | GDS Renko Bollinger 4-Mode Demo EA | Source Code Included

Capture price channel breakouts with the Price Channel Expert Advisor. Precise entries and exits. Explore now.

Four modes are included and enabled by default:

1. Breakout

A completed Renko brick closes beyond an outer Bollinger Band and confirms continuation in the breakout direction.

Default demonstration profile:

Brick 17, Period 20, Deviation 1.0, Entry Run 2, TP 24 bricks, SL 42 bricks, Max Hold 1230 min, Cooldown 5.

2. Re-entry / Mean Reversion

Price moves outside a band and a completed Renko brick returns inside. The trade looks for a move back toward the Bollinger middle line.

Default demonstration profile:

Brick 30, Period 31, Deviation 1.2, Entry Run 1, TP 28 bricks, SL 48.5 bricks, Max Hold 2580 min, Cooldown 3.

3. Midline Cross

A completed Renko brick crosses the Bollinger middle line. The middle line is used as a simple directional state change.

Default demonstration profile:

Brick 30, Period 5, Deviation 3.0, Entry Run 1, TP 10 bricks, SL 34.5 bricks, Max Hold 2220 min, Cooldown 3.

4. Squeeze Breakout

A breakout is accepted only when the previous Bollinger Band width is below a configurable maximum. This demonstrates a simple volatility-compression filter.

Default demonstration profile:

Brick 14, Period 18, Deviation 2.4, Max Width 34.5 bricks, Entry Run 1, TP 26 bricks, SL 31 bricks, Max Hold 2050 min, Cooldown 1.

Portfolio controls

Each mode can be enabled or disabled independently. On hedging accounts, each mode can hold one position and the common Max Positions input defaults to 4. On netting accounts MetaTrader 5 permits only one net position per symbol, so the EA automatically limits the effective maximum to one.

Skip Opposite Signals is an optional safety filter. When enabled, new entries are skipped if different modes generate opposite directions on the same tick. It is enabled by default.

The EA uses separate magic numbers for the four modes (Base Magic + 1 ... + 4), so positions can be associated with the mode that opened them after a terminal or EA restart.
